The board lights it up  quite well at night

Can confirm. The board gives it enough light at night that it doesn't need its own spotlights.

It would be great if they could program the Fight Song to play over the speakers at Sunup and Sundown everyday

Yes it would! What would be the proper thing to do? Should I pull off onto the shoulder, exit my vehicle, and stand at attention? :)

I would, you know!

Anyone seen if it's lighted up at night?

It is not.  It gets a bit of light from the nearby sign, but, at this point, it is not lighted.  Hopefully, lighting is on the agenda.  Perhaps lights powered by solar panels to continue the green theme around Apogee?

Another turbine !

I saw it last night (9-29).  I was trying to exit I-35W onto I-35 E without taking out a guard rail.  My wife got a better look.  She says if "billows gracefully."

We call it "Big Jim."

So here's a quandary...on game days do you want a nice breeze to completely unfurl the flag in all it's majestic glory (but possibly affect the passing game) or do you want a calm day possibly benefiting the passing game (but leaving the flag limp and hanging down against the pole)?

As always, it depends on the month and time of kick-off :-)

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I am torn on what to do with EM, but I know he needs to go. Many say we need a HC with head coaching experience at the FBS level. I know there are HCs at other FBS programs doing more with less, but would they come to a place where historically it's difficult to win consistently and risk it all if their eye is ultimately on a power conference job? Then if you take a P4 conference former HC, they have most likely been fired and they may not get the mojo back like Tom Herman at FAU or Charlie Strong. So, if that is the case where do we go? Many are saying no FCS HC or no more coordinators who have not been a HC at this level. Again where do we go if not those type of guys? My thought is that you may have to hire that guy that this board has been reluctant to go after. That's the guys who have had issues somewhere else and that's why they are no longer where they are. Lane Kiffin had issues and FAU gave him the chance to resurrect his career. Alabama gave Sarkisian (spelling) a chance to resurrect his career and he is doing good things at Texas. We have tried a lot of things, but we have not tried that route of HCs with some skeletons in their past. I feel that if that coach wins, people will forget about their past. I am sure people at Texas have forgotten about what went down with Sark at USC. Just my opinion because we have been striking out for a long time on HCs.

      In case you’re a Yeti collector

      YETI has a collegiate collection. I didn't get a chance to snag one of the above, so I'm hoping that UNT will become available on their website. Eventually?

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I'm not sure what the path is for Cobbs long term. A lot of us would absolutely love to have him in a HC role in Denton, but we want to see him gain HC experience first. Do we take a chance and give him that crown? Do we watch him leave, and possibly not return...ever?
